The staff at Ms. Doreens does their best to incorporate respect for others. It is part of their core values. We have come across many personalities in this environment (same at many studios) and choose to take the higher road, set a good example and focus on the purpose for being there. Dancing at Ms. Doreens can be a terrific experience for the student, it just depends on what you focus on. Please do not be put off by negative reviews.
